Benaldo1981's Tips History
31 July 2025
03:05 SEA Mariners @ The Athletics
The Athletics
Money Line
50 WIN
@2.25
Win
62
The A's got the win last night and, of course, rattled four straight over the Astros before that. So they look like a decent play with the home advantage here.
00:45 MIA Marlins @ STL Cardinals
MIA Marlins
Money Line
50 WIN
@2.25
Win
62
Marlins got the shut out last night so I think they are worth backing to clinch the series here. They are definitely good enough to go back to back.
00:10 LA Dodgers @ CIN Reds
CIN Reds
Money Line
50 WIN
@2.40
Win
70
I think the Reds are probably value at this price with the home advantage, as I don't think there's too much between these two sides.

22:00 Arthur Fils vs Pablo Carreno Busta
Pablo Carreno Busta
Win Match
50 WIN
@3.20
Lose
-50
No tennis for Fils since the French Open and no hard court since March, so Carreno Busta may be able to take advantage of the rustiness here.
21:30 Yuliia Starodubtseva vs Magdalena Frech
Yuliia Starodubtseva
Win Match
50 WIN
@2.75
Win
88
Frech pretty poor on the surface this season and even though Starodubtseva has only been marginally better, she probably shouldn't be this big in the win market.
16:55 4:55 Goodwood
Racingbreaks Ryder
Daily Racing
25 EWNAP
@26.00
Lose
-50
RACINGBREAKS RYDER enjoys it here, having placed in this last year and finishing second the last twice. He still looks pretty well handicapped and avoids the high draw so looks to have each-way claims if keeping to the recent form. Went off fav for the Racing League last week at Yarmouth and could get involved again.
10:00 Diane Parry vs Daria Snigur
Daria Snigur
Win Match
50 WIN
@3.20
Win
110
Snigur is the lesser-ranked player, but Parry hasn't quite lived up to expectations this season and so could come unstuck here.
10:00 Katerina Siniakova vs Alina Charaeva
Alina Charaeva
Win Match
50 WIN
@3.60
Lose
-50
I think there are some seeds who could come unstuck here today, and Charaeva is in good form, so she could be able to take this one.
10:00 Sofia Costoulas vs Viktorija Golubic
Sofia Costoulas
Win Match
50 WIN
@3.60
Lose
-50
Costoulas is in pretty good form on this surface, and this probably looks like a value play. I'd have Golubic as the marginal favorite, but not at this price.
10:00 Xinyu Gao vs Ella Seidel
Xinyu Gao
Win Match
50 WIN
@2.60
Void
0
Gao looks in pretty good shape on this surface and I think she's basically got the potential, if at the top of her game, to cause the upset here.
02:45 PIT Pirates @ SF Giants
PIT Pirates
Money Line
50 WIN
@2.40
Win
70
The Giants are really struggling of late, so I think Pittsburgh, who have picked up their fortunes, look like a decent prospect at this price.
02:38 TEX Rangers @ LA Angels
TEX Rangers
Money Line
50 WIN
@2.10
Lose
-50
Rangers are far superior in form, and I think man for man, they are probably the better team too. I'm surprised they aren't the favorites for this one.
01:10 WAS Nationals @ HOU Astros
WAS Nationals
Money Line
50 WIN
@2.20
Lose
-50
Astros are one of three division leaders with losing records over the last 10, and Washington is playing a bit better. So maybe they can land this.
00:45 MIA Marlins @ STL Cardinals
MIA Marlins
Money Line
50 WIN
@2.40
Win
70
Cardinals are not in as good a form as Miami at the moment. So even with the Marlins being the road team, I think they look like a decent bet.
00:40 PHI Phillies @ CHI White Sox
CHI White Sox
Money Line
50 WIN
@2.50
Lose
-50
Chicago, a bit like the Rockies, are worth backing at the moment at these sorts of prices. They are generally in better form than usual and, with home advantage, could continue the streak.
00:10 LA Dodgers @ CIN Reds
CIN Reds
Money Line
50 WIN
@2.35
Lose
-50
The Reds look like value at this price against a Dodgers side that hasn't really been clicking of late. Cincinnati also has the home advantage.
00:05 TB Rays @ NY Yankees
TB Rays
Money Line
50 WIN
@2.65
Lose
-50
Rays are probably value here with the Yankees on a losing patch of under .500 at the moment. The Yankees should be favorites, but due to the mini slump, probably not by this much.
Subtotal-112
29 July 2025
23:40 ARI Diamondbacks @ DET Tigers
ARI Diamondbacks
Money Line
50 WIN
@2.20
Lose
-50
DBacks might be able to take advantage of the Tigers' poor form of late and land this one. Detroit has struggled for consistency of late and could come unstuck.
23:40 COL Rockies @ CLE Guardians
COL Rockies
Money Line
50 WIN
@2.80
Lose
-50
Rockies continue to be a decent value play at the moment as they are consistently this price in matches but are performing better than the price suggests.
16:00 Alexandre Muller vs Miomir Kecmanovic
Alexandre Muller
Win Match
50 WIN
@2.60
Win
80
There looks to be quite a big ranking gap between the players that have very little to separate them in rankings and hard court form. Muller also edged the previous head-to-head earlier in the season.
16:00 Aoi Ito vs Jasmine Paolini
Aoi Ito
Win Match
50 WIN
@8.00
Win
350
If you include the French Open final, Paolini has lost four of the last seven matches on the tour. So perhaps she comes unstuck and is a big first-round shock here.
16:00 Denis Shapovalov vs Learner Tien
Learner Tien
Win Match
50 WIN
@2.62
Win
81
Tien is progressing well and could have the ability to cause the upset here against Shapovalov, who isn't the force he once was.
16:00 Lorenzo Musetti vs James Duckworth
James Duckworth
Win Match
50 WIN
@4.50
Lose
-50
Duckworth might be able to clinch this as Musetti has rarely been able to find any real consistency on the hard court, so he's fancied to cause the upset here.
16:00 Marta Kostyuk vs Marketa Vondrousova
Marta Kostyuk
Win Match
50 WIN
@2.40
Win
70
I think Vondrousova's grass court season (win in Berlin) has marked her up here. A different story potentially on the hard court and I think Kostyuk is a decent play at the price.
16:00 Maya Joint vs Leylah Fernandez
Maya Joint
Win Match
50 WIN
@2.75
Win
88
Fernandez obviously beat Joint in Washington on her way to the final last week. But I think Joint has a chance to exact revenge and take advantage of her opponent's fatigue here.
16:00 Suzan Lamens vs Beatriz Haddad Maia
Suzan Lamens
Win Match
50 WIN
@2.40
Win
70
Haddad Maia is in a real slump at the moment, especially on the hard court. I don't think she should be this heavily favored until she gets some of her form back.
16:00 Veronika Kudermetova vs Olga Danilovic
Olga Danilovic
Win Match
50 WIN
@2.20
Lose
-50
Danilovic is the seeded player and her hard court form is taken to improve over the second half of the season. I think she's good enough to advance here.
13:20 1:20 Goodwood
Sir Busker
Daily Racing
25 EWNAP
@21.00
Lose
-50
Now 9 years old, but SIR BUSKER took a good step forward last time out, loves a big field, enjoys it round here and is below last winning mark. Just strikes me as an outsider that ticks a lot of boxes and could outrun this price. A hold up sort so will need a gap towards the finish and some luck in running, but still worth a look at this price with the extra places.
13:00 Katerina Siniakova vs Lanlana Tararudee
Lanlana Tararudee
Win Match
50 WIN
@4.50
Lose
-50
Tararudee is a value play here, she wins an awful lot on the hard court and could be good enough to claim a big early round upset here.
10:00 Andrea Lazaro Garcia vs Ella Seidel
Andrea Lazaro Garcia
Win Match
50 WIN
@3.20
Lose
-50
Lazaro Garcia could take advantage of her opponent Seidel here as she hasn't been particularly active on the hard courts of late.
02:45 PIT Pirates @ SF Giants
PIT Pirates
Money Line
50 WIN
@2.38
Win
69
The Giants don't look like a particularly solid play at the moment and are close to dropping below .500. So maybe the Pirates can take care of this contest.
02:40 NY Mets @ SD Padres
NY Mets
Money Line
50 WIN
@2.10
Lose
-50
Seven straight wins for the Mets, and I make them good enough to take care of the Padres here. They look like a good double-your-money play.
01:30 Arthur Rinderknech vs Alexis Galarneau
Alexis Galarneau
Win Match
50 WIN
@2.60
Win
80
Rinderknech had a good Wimbledon, but he's been exploited on every other surface this season. Until he backs up that SW19 performance, he is taken on here.
01:30 Maria Sakkari vs Carson Branstine
Carson Branstine
Win Match
50 WIN
@3.50
Lose
-50
Maybe the home player can cause the upset here. She's been very good on the hard courts and might be able to give Sakkari a really close match. She's definitely value, I think.
01:10 WAS Nationals @ HOU Astros
WAS Nationals
Money Line
50 WIN
@3.25
Win
112
Four defeats in a row for the Astros now so they might be too heavily fancied here. The Nationals have won a couple and might be able to nick another one.
00:45 MIA Marlins @ STL Cardinals
MIA Marlins
Money Line
50 WIN
@2.00
Lose
-50
Marlins are in much better form than the Cardinals, so even as the road team, they are given due consideration to land this matchup.
00:40 ATL Braves @ KC Royals
KC Royals
Money Line
50 WIN
@2.45
Lose
-50
The Royals are in much better form at the moment, and the Braves are really struggling for consistency. So, KC looks like a decent play at this price.
00:40 PHI Phillies @ CHI White Sox
CHI White Sox
Money Line
50 WIN
@2.90
Win
95
Chicago seems to be playing under much less pressure at the moment. With a record over .500 over the last ten matches, it may be good enough to seek out another victory in front of their own fans.
00:30 Antonia Ruzic vs Anastasia Potapova
Antonia Ruzic
Win Match
50 WIN
@2.30
Win
65
Ruzic could potentially claim the mini upset here. She's solid on the hard court generally and Potapova's form is pretty ordinary.
00:10 LA Dodgers @ CIN Reds
CIN Reds
Money Line
50 WIN
@2.35
Lose
-50
Four straight wins for the Reds, so they look in good form. With home advantage, they could always take out the division-leading Dodgers here.

23:40 ARI Diamondbacks @ DET Tigers
ARI Diamondbacks
Money Line
50 WIN
@2.20
Lose
-50
Tigers are in a real rut at the moment, and I'm not too convinced the DBacks will roll over for them here. Arizona could compound the misery.
19:25 7:25 Southwell
Master Richard
Daily Racing
25 EWNAPNOTENon runners at 10.0 or more so no R4 deduction
@17.00
Win
480
MASTER RICHARD returns to the all-weather from a significantly reduced mark, so he might be able to turn the tide on a disappointing turf campaign here. His last three runs in this grade and on this surface were fourth-placed finishes from much higher in the handicap, so maybe this switch is what the doctor ordered.
16:05 4:05 Ayr
Glasses Up
Daily Racing
25 EWNB
@34.00
Lose
-50
I do think every now and again horses you can class as veterans are written off too readily, especially if there's still some fairly recent form in the locker. GLASSES UP fits the bill here with that course hat-trick recorded here as recently as May. Poor since then but only a pound above last winning mark and difficult to rule out, even with some potential young improvers in this field.

01:30 Elsa Jacquemot vs Rebecca Marino
Rebecca Marino
Win Match
50 WIN
@2.90
Win
95
There's not a huge discrepancy in form between these two players, so I think Marino is a value play at this price. If she plays at her best, she can win this one.
01:30 Juncheng Shang vs James Duckworth
Juncheng Shang
Win Match
50 WIN
@2.20
Lose
-50
Shang would be my favourite for this one. I think he's playing the better tennis on the hard court and could well dominate this contest.
00:30 Whitney Osuigwe vs Hailey Baptiste
Whitney Osuigwe
Win Match
50 WIN
@5.25
Lose
-50
I wouldn't have Baptiste this heavily favored here. Her hard court form is ordinary at best on the tour this year, and maybe Osuigwe has a career day here.
00:00 Bianca Andreescu vs Barbora Krejcikova
Barbora Krejcikova
Win Match
50 WIN
@2.20
Lose
-50
Two sparsely seen players on the tour this year, but if anything, I think historically Krejcikova is the better on the hard court and is worth siding with here.

22:00 Miomir Kecmanovic vs Quentin Halys
Quentin Halys
Win Match
50 WIN
@2.60
Lose
-50
Halys looks like the player to be with at this price. They look pretty evenly matched on the hard court statistically. Even though Kecmanovic is the higher-ranked player, it's not a clear-cut outcome.
19:30 Shintaro Mochizuki vs Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard
Shintaro Mochizuki
Win Match
50 WIN
@3.10
Lose
-50
Mochizuki could be good enough here. Very solid grass court season, so coming back to hard court in great shape and will cause Mpetshi Perricard problems.
19:10 CHI Cubs @ CHI White Sox
CHI White Sox
Money Line
50 WIN
@2.50
Lose
-50
We'll look at the White Sox here with the home advantage, because even with the poor start, they are performing a bit better of late and could upset their city rivals.
19:10 CLE Guardians @ KC Royals
CLE Guardians
Money Line
50 WIN
@2.20
Lose
-50
Guardians look a decent play at this price as they are in better form and could well take care of the Royals here.
19:10 MIA Marlins @ MIL Brewers
MIA Marlins
Money Line
50 WIN
@2.30
Lose
-50
The Marlins look like one of the form teams in the MLB at the moment. So even as the road team, they are considered at this price.
19:10 WAS Nationals @ MIN Twins
WAS Nationals
Money Line
50 WIN
@2.45
Win

This looks like it'd be a bit closer than the odds suggest, so I think the Nationals are worth siding with at this price as they've definitely got the potential to win.
19:05 COL Rockies @ BAL Orioles
COL Rockies
Money Line
50 WIN
@2.55
Lose
-50
Orioles not in great form, so I think the Rockies, who have been at around .500 for a while now, look like a value play at this price.
